"I’m dismayed but not surprised that this bunch of worthless parasites has, once again, supported the destruction of an internationally important wildlife site. This does NOT support local, sustainable fisheries. It opens the door for ploughing the sea bed on an industrial scale. Worthless parasites just about sums up my view of AMs and their attitude towards one of our greatest assets, the natural environment. As well as the AMs, you can also throw NRW [Natural Resources Wales] into that same category. This is a spineless body that continually refuses to fight for our wildlife."

Currently this was a Labour decision - Labour minister (Lesley Griffiths), and a majority Labour government. Would the other parties have also gone against all the ecologists and the public consultation in order to get a bit more money? Possibly. Either way, people at the Welsh Government should be ashamed.
